• Notes: Use this for lovely skin, negatives shiny_skin if you find the skin losing the matte effect. This one is lovely for plump ladies because it has beautiful body shading.

• Please click on the preview images to check out my recommended prompting style. The prompts contain keywords which you will use for this lora. In this case:

• Recommended Weight: 0.1 to 1

• Trigger words : parsley-illu

• Sampler: Euler A (ancestral) / beta : 25 to 40 steps.

• CFG Scale: 5.5 to 7.

• Clip Skip: 2.

• FLAT ANIME STYLE: flat_colors, anime_coloring, anime_style

• 3D STYLE: render, realistic (negatives: cartoon, anime)

• REALISTIC: Realistic, photorealistic (negative: cartoon, anime) Negate 3D if you want it to be less shiny as well.

• Shiny Skin: The amount of people who tell me they don't like shiny skin! I like it a lot myself but to negate shiny skin literally put "shiny_skin" into negatives, also you can add "render" or "3D" to reduce shininess. :3

• Noisy Output: If your output is noisy and you see a lot of weirdness decrease the weight of the lora and/or switch to a different model. Sometimes you may have to go as low as .3 to get a lora to 'calm down', or even swap a to a different model that plays more nicely. If you find that you are getting strange body morphs, decrease your 'denoise' slowly, (usually starting at .35), also make sure you don't have more than one of things like 'stomach', 'navel', etc that confuses the model and causes overlapping strange anatomy. Also try negatives: "anatomical_nonsense".
